[SFBC]

Post your fishing reports here.

pretty quiet for reports here eh? Maybe a better time to focus on having some beers? PSF event at Fern and Cedar on Feb 28th for those interested

Lots of great size winter springs around the humps. Good reports from Ballenas as well.

Just remember when you complain about the ramp or humps at FC being a **** show is a direct result of you posting on here or FB

That’s funny. My boat is to big to launch day in and day out. Pay for a slip year round so I don’t have to worry about s shows at FC. Humps being busy, I guess, but its nothing compared to Camel Rock at the end of July. Lots of room out there at the humps.

Sweet, I’m lucky I have a stern tie at FC, not sure I would fish there if I had to deal with the morons at the ramp every weekend.

Anyone here fishing for herring out of French creek? Thinking it’s getting close. Any reports would be great!

Once they get there how long does it last?

TIA

I concur. That ramp was a real eye opener during my one experience there

Ever since the FB page was started it’s been chaos, worse every year.

Can’t be worse than Rocky Point (in Port Moody) on a summers day. It’s a rookie haven there. Highly entertaining though.

When I lived in Coquitlam we used to take a case of beer down there on weekends and heckle the launchers.

I don't mind the ramp in the winter. Stern tie in Port Alberni in the summer so I'm not there for the gong show then. Fished and used the ramp there labour day one time. Never again lol.

Tons of bait and steady undersized @ 200' between spar buoy and Mistaken today. Beauty day on the water.

Heading out tomorrow to dial in the boat! Thinking the humps at French creek.

Ran down to French creek. Lots of action but it seems every fish was 55 cm. Pulled my crab traps and it was a bust. Lots of little guys.
Tomorrow I will try again

Sometimes it doesn’t matter what you catch when you have weather like that. What a weekend water wise!

Anyone been out ballenas or mistaken islands? Went out for an hour a couple days ago and no love. Although I figured out auto pilot which is nice
